The Miami Pioneers and Natives of Dade are pleased to welcome Karelia Martinez Carbonell, a historian and preservationist dedicated to protecting Coral Gables’ architectural legacy. As President of the Historic Preservation Association of Coral Gables, she has played a crucial role in advocacy and awareness campaigns for heritage sites.
She recently co-authored a book on architecture, Coral Gables: The Moderns - Redefining The City Beautiful 1960-1980, shedding light on a lesser-known yet significant chapter of Coral Gables’ architectural evolution -- celebrating the city’s embrace of Modernism in the mid-20th century.
Her co-author is Bruce Fitzgerald, an architectural enthusiast and writer passionate about documenting and promoting historical and modernist structures, who passed away in 2025.
Karelia will discuss the book, the modern architecture and offer a briefing on the work of the Historical Preservation Association of Coral Gables.
